The civilian with the deepest eyes who wields the
elippers at the No. 3 chair in the post PX Barber Shop
is not very talkative. Perhaps his reserve springs from
the fact he has but seven minutes to shear your GI locks;
more than likely it's the reticence of a fighting man whose
memories are those of one who has come through times

'Says Women
Best Drivers
Men are -loathe to admit it, but
women drivers are better than
men, at least at BTC 10, accord­ing
to figures compiled by the
Post Motor pool during the past
year.
According to the statistics, the
women have a 25 percent better
accident record than the men
drivers. Although the women
are outnumbered approximately
three to one, the figures are com­piled
proportionately. The rea­son
attribute dto the better record
is that generally women pay more
attention to the small details of
driving than the men, who often
take these details for granted.
The over-all accident record
has been remarkably good on
the post and one of the reasons
is the program of safety educa­tion
being carried on by the
Motor Pool.
A school for drivers is con­ducted
twice a week, each course
lasting three days. During that
time, each day is divided into
two two-hour periods, one in the
classroom and one outdoors. The
theory is explained during the
classroom session and a practical
application of the theory is dem­onstrated
outdoors.
All of the motor pool drivers
attend the school, 10 to each
course, along with 10 enlisted
men. Instructions are given by
three enlisted men assigned to
the Motor Pool.
In addition to the school, the
Motor Pool maintains its own
suggestion box where the drivers
may place their ideas for im­proving
material and driving
methods-' There is also a Motor
Pool representative who period­ically
tours the oost making in­spections
of equipment and per­sonnel.

He was there for 20 days; hard­ly

crowded a lifetime of discomfort,
Of heat, of battle and adventure,
"For conspicuous gallantry and
Intrepidity in action against the

Sgt. '.Goble the Silver Star for
heroism on Oct. 9, 1942. It con­tinues:

"Perceiving that his company
was receiving heavy enemy mor­tar

wooded draw to the right of his
position and disregarding his own
[personal safety, stood up on a bare

and directed the fire of the rifle
grenadiers of his platoon upon the
enemy position.
"As a result the hostile fire from
this position was silenced. Later,
during the same action, while un­der
the fire of hostile forces in the
vicinity, disregarding his own per­sonal
safety, Sergeant Goble rushed
forward across an area swept by
enemy fire, and removed to the
place of safety a seriously wounded

The order for the discharge

from Ft. Meade, Md.
By PVT. JOHN E. JONES.
Maj. Furman E. Jordan of Ber­lin,
Ala., who served 18 months in
Britain as a chaplain with the
Eighth U. S. Air Force, has been
named Post chaplain at BTC 10 to
succeed Maj. Harrison R. Brann.
Maj. Brann has been reassigned.
The appointment of Maj. Jordan
became official' Wednesday. He
arrived on the Post several weeks
ago from Ft. Worth, Tex., where
he was stationed following his re­turn
from England last December.
A Presbyterian clergyman, Maj.
Jordan was the first chaplain' as­signed
to the Eighth Air Force. He
assumed his duties in the Spring of
1942 while the command was being
activated at Savannah, Ga. And
he arrived with the force in Eng­land
the following June after a
near-record (for troopships) four
and one-half days. crossing of the
Atlantic.
The^ Eighth's safe arrival in Eng­land
_ inspired the most impressive
religious service he ever conducted,
Chaplain Jordan said.
"Without any prompting on my
part,"^ he related, "the men came
to me and asked me to hold a
Thanksgiving service in commemo­ration
of our safe arrival. So as
soon as we got off the train that
took us from the ship to our base,
we held the service. Thousands of
the men knelt in the shadow-of the
railway station and gave thanks."
The officers and men overseas
pay more attention to church and
church services than they do over
here, Chaplain Jordan said. The
pfficers overseas "lead their men in
prayer and worship," he related.
"You've heard the maxim that
'there are no atheists in the fox­holes
of Bataan,' " Maj. Jordan said.
"Well, it's just • as true that there
are no atheists in the bombers Dy­ing
over Germany."
Historic Westminster Abbey was
the scene of the largest service that
Chaplain Jordan ever conducted.
The time was Thanksgiving, 1942.
MAJ. FURMAN E. JORDAN.
It was the first service ever held
by Americans in the Abbey and it
marked the first time that any
service had been conducted there
since the 11th Century by any de­nomination
other than the Church
of England.
High-ranking officers of the
American and British air forces
were present. So were diplomatic
dignitaries fo the two countries.
More than 3,000 American sol­diers
attended, while thousands of
British civilians milled around out­side
of the church while the serv­ice
was brought to them by loud­speaker.
Chaplain Jordan praised highly
the friendliness of the British peo­ple
toward the American soldiers.
He also stressed that the black-market
is noticeably absent in Eng­land.
"They don't warn merchants over
there against black market opera­tors,"
he said. "They close them
up—far duration of the war."
Chaplain Jordan entered the
Army in April, 1941, as a first lieu­tenant.
He was promoted to cap­tain
in August, 1942, and to major
in May, 1943.
Chaplain Jordan has been pastor
of the Jonesboro, Ga., Presbyterian
Church and of the Demopolis, Ala^
Presbyterian Church. He was
graduated from Presbyterian Col­lege.
